December 14, 201114 yr No, not the Medicare Supplement . Does plan-G (moving map/flight planner) show ai aircraft on the map as well? Im currently using flightsim commander on a second monitor while using FSX. Ive been hearing good things about Plan G. Anyone use both? which would you recommend.Im not at my PC right now, otherwise Id just download it and try it myself.Rob

December 14, 201114 yr It's a great Planner by the way, one day I hope they add fuel to the plans Ron Hamilton "95% is half the truth, but most of it is lies, but if you read half of what is written, you'll be okay." __ Honey Boo Boo's Mom
December 14, 201114 yr I've had a bit of a go at PlanG- I find it harder to use than Commander which like a lot.- making flight plans in particular.
December 15, 201114 yr I like plan-G as a moving map in that respect it is light years ahead of FSC but lack of Navigraph support is a limitation when you import flightplans that were prepared with apps that do support navigraph (you can end up with some very bizarre tracks) - but as a freeware offering you can'y really complain too much.Bruce Bruce Bartlett Frodo: "I wish none of this had happened."

December 15, 201114 yr Can Plan-g be brought up (moving map) while in FSX, or do you have to alt tab between them like I am now?
December 15, 201114 yr I use both FSCommander and Plan-G. Plan-G for VFR and it does that very well. FSC for IFR because it has navigraph and some other features. I do believe that Plan-G was primarily designed around VFR, and it does have all the same nav data that your flight simulator has, no SIDs or STARs of course. I highly recommned you run Plan-G on a separate computer with WideFS. Jim Shield Cybersecurity Specialist
December 15, 201114 yr I highly recommned you run Plan-G on a separate computer with WideFS.No need for WideFS as PlanG runs happily on a networked PC using Simconnect.M. Very Best Wishes, Dr T. Maurice Murphy
December 16, 201114 yr No need for WideFS as PlanG runs happily on a networked PC using Simconnect.M.When I find out how to easily network 2 Windows 7 PC's I'll have a go! So far no luck despite reading loads of tutorials via Google:(

I find that FSC runs much better on my second machine than PLAN-G, even running with Google Earth up and the terrain overlay showing on that. Although it would be much better if FSC could show the terrain without going into Google Earth !!G Gary Davies aka "Gazzareth" Simming since 747 on the Acorn Electron
December 18, 201114 yr Its not light yrs ahead of FSC since it doesn't use RW navdata. I quit using FS flight planning yrs ago. I'll stay with FSC.IIt is when it comes to a moving map display - FSC is very much old school in that respect with very low detail terrain display. But I agree not on other aspects such as no Navigraph support. I usually flightplan in FSC but use Plan-G for a moving map.Bruce Bruce Bartlett Frodo: "I wish none of this had happened."
